Jungle Gazette Help request

[UnOrthOdOx]

Hi all. You may have noticed I am a bit more busy in RL than normal, what with my Spook Alley and all.

I need some help with Wed Edition this week. I will actually post it, but could use some stories.

I can't find a good report for Sat chat, but some things I know we need stories on are:

Change to Republic.
Loss of Ivory.
Some cities in Disorder, though I can't find which ones.
I would like a story, likely cut-pasted mostly, of Mr. Oranges Military report.


There is also a chat to be played on Teusday? We will need to get something on that as well.

Please post in here what you will write on, so we don't get multiple stories on the same thing, then PM me the story.

Format should be:

Title
Subtitle

Story

Name (yours or made up)

Thank you all for the help.

[Mr. Orange]

Well, in the interestes of integrity of journalism, I won't do a critique of my own work!

I can do loss of Ivory. that would be a hoot. If need be, change to Republic.

You'll have it by Tuesday.

BTW: What is Spook Alley? Have a link to it?

EDIT: Wrong day, wouldn't help you on Thursday would it?

[UnOrthOdOx]

I own and operate a local spook alley for kids ages 3-8. Cash goes to a burn unit for children in a local Hospital.

We don't have a website, no.

[UnOrthOdOx]

I am going to need someone for a HUGE story coming out soon. PM me if you want to cover it.

[UnOrthOdOx]

OK I will get Mr Orange's Military report, and the state of the Nation if Reddawg makes it.

Can someone tell me what cities went into disorder?

And can someone tell me the cause of the CNN, the Gazette's counterpart in the ACDG, to disband more or less?

Here It Is, Del Monte and Gaia.

Here It Is also went into disorder the turn after we took it over.

[UnOrthOdOx]

OK.

So far I have written on the Jungle Ball weekend, the Stats, and Mr Orange's Defense Assesment.

Mr Orange is doing the Switch to Republic, and loss of ivory.

Still need:

Disorder in HereItIs, Gaia, and Del Monte (possibly write in with switch to Republic? Loyal Monarchists Revolt???)
Attainment of Gunpowder and Salt Peter.
Attainment of Banking. (possibly with the above...)

[Shiber]

I think I'll take the tech articles.
That's saltpaper btw.

[Shiber]

Just finished the Gunpowder article. I got a writer's block on the Banking one though...

[GodKing]

Shiber - how about something along the lines of "our money lenders have come up with a new method of storing money. They call it a 'bank'. If you store your money with them, they will use it for making their loans. However, they will pay you what they call 'interest' for storing your money with them. Members of the government are looking at ways of securing these 'deposits' so that if the bank goes out of business, the individual does not loose their money."

Perhaps something about... crap, what is it called.... the small wonder we can build once we have 5 banks....

Does this help? I am at work and am just sneaking in on poly....

[Shiber]

Wall Street.
And no, I'm afraid it doesn't help... but thanks for trying. I think it's just my headache. I got a cold yesterday.

[UnOrthOdOx]

Writers block?

Writer's block is when you sit down Saturday morning, and one hour later post a paper that you have NO idea what you wrote...Not that that has ever happened to me...especially not last Saturday...

Paper is comming nicely.

Still need Disorder
And the big story to come out so I can write on it...
edit: Oh, looks like we can add Astronomy to the list as well.

/me eyes several active members. You know who you are...and what I am waiting for...

Honestly, there are times when I am just writting and not even thinking about it, things just start flowing to the keyboard. Usually, those are the best stories as well. I can't think of anything to write about, so I just start typing...

[zeit]

What do you need about the disorder, someone to write a story about this?

Losing the Ivory plus Republic seems like a good reason for Nobles to stir things up...
Can i try and make a story?

[UnOrthOdOx]

Absolutely. Keep in mind that Mr Orange is covering the Switch to Republic and loss of Ivory, however. Focus on the disorder. Can be loyal Monarchists uniting in demonstration, lack of Banana's, whatever you feel like making a fuss over: renaming of cities? Fear of MrWIA returning to office? have fun with it.


edit:

I love these editions where I get allot of participation.

[History Guy]

BTW, Unorthodox, just sent you two PMs, being the two halves of my first letter. Is that OK?
